Well I got down the rfd today with the raider and they did a straight swap for the 99s and I'm well pleased with my new toy so guys what mods make this great little gun that bit nicer?

Best mod for a 99 would be to shoot a couple or three thousand pellets through it.
Seriously, they are pretty well balanced internally as standard, a well run in springer will often shoot like a well tuned springer.
If it's a .22, it already shoots well enough... however ...! I have just added a Vortek kit to mine which has taken it to quite another level. My barrel sleeve has made it very steady in the hold, and I'd also like a set=-back trigger. For now, though, just get out and enjoy it would be my suggestion

maybe one of the tinbum drop in kits.

Thanks TonyL I plan on enjoying it and it's been fun with the open sites. I got a bit carried away earlier I only ment to put a couple of pellets through it and about 50 or so later I realised it was time to sort the kids out. And I had run out of targets for in the garden. 😊
With some careful tuning, the .177's can touch 14 fpe without being harsh, but a Maccari spring is needed. (and an FAC). I'm with you though Bozzer..I like it smack dab on 12 ft/lbs (but in .177 rather than .22). My shooting bud has one in .22 and I like it as well. I think his shoots Accupells at 605 fps and its a great backyard can smasher.
